Issue rowe 
Status: accepted in part
Origin: sarowe@textwise.com: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-xml-infoset-comments/2001AprJun/0047.html 
Several minor points

Accepted except for two points. 

"Attribute defaults are not required reading for non-validating
processors" - this is not correct. All processors must default
attributes if they have read the relevant declaration.

"The 20th item under Appendix D [...] is in direct conflict with the
tenth reporting requirement under Appendix B" - this is a
misunderstanding. Item 10 in appendix B says that an XML processor
must supply as the attribute's actual value the default value for
attributes whose declaration provides a default value but that are
unspecified on the start tag in question. Item 20 in appendix D says
that information about an attribute's declared default value
(irrespective of whether that attribute is defaulted in this case) is
not included in the Infoset.
